Default What should I build first?

OK... Well, I bought these on Ebay, and I would consider selling some of them but I need some building suggestions before that happens.

These are all Radio Shack speakers.

40-1197...2 pairs 4 inch (like the FE103???)
40-1043...1 pair 8 inch
40-1272...2 pairs 8 inch (90 dB, 25 watt with the whizzer cones)
40-1240...1 pair 5 inch
40-1041...2 pairs 5 inch
40-1042...1 pair 6 inch
40-1284E...2 pairs 5 inch
40-1261...1 pair 5X7 inch
40-1297C...1 ea 4X10 inch.

I have box speakers and that's all over with. Presently, I have a strong liking for arrays and have built two sets but I'm ready for something all together different. 1" MDF is on order and 3/4" is here.

I would like to build some back loaded horns. I am looking at the Lowther and/or Fostex plans.

As a newb, I would like to learn the recommended relationship between the cabinet volume and TS parameters.

Thoughts, suggestions and comments?

Thanks in advance!

Buschorn II works well with the 1197s (but don't use MDF, use plywood)

Most of the other drivers have been discussed on the FR Forum (you'll have to download the archives)
